The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past/Hyrule Castle

Line 3:

The game opens with a telepathic message from the imprisoned Princess Zelda. Link's uncle hears it and sets off to rescue her. However Link also heard it; naturally he leaves the house to go save her. To leave the bed press any direction. Go open the chest to get the '''Lamp''', an item that will be very useful later on. Head outside.

You can't really go anywhere at the moment as the guards bar your way. ~~Eventually~~ Princess Zelda will tell you there's an entrance hidden in the garden. Find it.

You can't really go anywhere at the moment as the guards bar your way. If you go north, just before you reach the bridge; Princess Zelda will tell you there's an entrance hidden in the garden. Find it by following the brick path to the right, pick up the bush then drop down the hole.

Once under the castle you'll come across your Uncle, fatally wounded. With his dying breath he gives you his sword and shield and teaches you how to perform a 360° slash; for reference, simply hold down the attack button ({{snes|B}} on SNES, {{gb|R}} on GBA) until the magic sparks reach the tip of your sword. Head down and to the right for a chest and some magic meter refills.

The guards in this room won't actively attack you but you do take damage if they touch you. The chest contains a blue Rupee (worth 5), or a '''Lamp'''; if you haven't already got one. If you wish you can use the now-powered lamp to light the room; this does nothing, but in other rooms lighting these floor lamps will almost always reveal a secret or open a door.

First off, save the Princess, and pick up some goodies along the way. From the entrance room head east and then north. Take either path, both lead to the dungeon. Once you reach the door head west and down the northern stairs. Kill the guard for a ~~key~~, and open the chest for the [[Image:Zelda ALttP item Map.png]] '''Map'''. You can now view the map at any time ({{snes|X}} on SNES, {{gb|L}} on GBA). Unlock the door and head south.

In this new area you can knock the enemies off the edge with a little effort, but make sure they don't do the same to you! Follow the path until you reach the room with the horizontal overpass. Go to the far left here and up through the door. Kill the guard and the doors will unlock. Head right. Kill this guard for a[[Image:Zelda ALttP item Small Key.png]]'''Small Key''' and open the chest for the '''Boomerang'''. This stuns some enemies for a short time (such as the soldiers) and injures or even kills other types of enemies. Head back to the left and then up through the door.

Go down the stairs and down the other stairs, and prepare for battle! This miniboss wields a morningstar-like weapon that he can swing quite a distance. The boomerang will stun him, but unlike other enemies he shakes himself straight away and so recovers almost instantly. The pots in the left-hand cell all contain hearts, so refill there if you need to. However he can still attack you through the bars so you aren't safe there. After eight hits he goes down. Grab the [[Image:Zelda ALttP item Big Key.png]] '''Big Key''' and use it to open Princess Zelda's cell. There's a '''Lamp''' in the chest if you don't have one already. Be sure to get it if you didn't before, as you can't progress without it.

The best strategy for killing him is to grab the pots with the hearts under them and throw them at the enemy, they attack at a range and it only takes 2 pots to do it.

Now with the princess in tow, return to the central room of the castle. From the southern entrance go directly up and don't stop until you come to the ornamental shelf. Zelda explains you can push it. Go in.
